Grants For Tankless Are Ending In Ontario

Posted on Mar 3, 2011 | 0 comments

The grant money available to home owners that switch from a regular conventional tank to the newer tankless system will disappear on MARCH 31st 2011.

This a great program that the Government has in place to help home owners offset the cost associated with upgrading old heating, cooling, insulation and various other systems within a home.  Upgrading old conventional tank type water heaters was one of the major targeted areas that saw huge grants to promote the removal of these systems.  A tankless system is designed to have a lifespan of over 20 years, where as a tank will be lucky to last 12-15 years.  The efficiency comparison between a storage tank system and a tankless is roughly around the 40% mark.  Yes a tankless will be more expensive but it will save you money, and even though that money is hard to see a tankless systems is a proven money saver.
